Energy stress depletes ATP and induces cell death. Here we identify an unexpected inhibitory role of energy stress on ferroptosis, a form of regulated cell death induced by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. We found that ferroptotic cell death and lipid peroxidation can be inhibited by treatment...
The energy sensor AMPK promotes tumor cell survival under stress, but how to prevent AMPK activation to blunt tumor progression remains unclear. Here we show that the metabolite α-ketoglutarate (α-KG) controls AMPK translation through a TET-YBX1 axis, which can be exploited to sensitize human can...

BACKGROUND: Periodontal ligament mesenchymal stem cells (PDLSCs) are a promising cell resource for cell-based regenerative medicine in dentistry. PDLSCs inevitably acquire a senescent phenotype after prolonged in vitro expansion, and the key regulators of cells during replicative...
Hyperuricemia (HUA) is a metabolic disorder marked by increased blood uric acid (UA) levels, closely linked to conditions such as gout. UA-induced macrophage M1 polarization fundamentally exacerbates inflammatory pathophysiology, but current HUA-specific immunoregulatory treatments are inadequat...
Abstract Background & Aims: Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) pathogenesis involves gut microbiota dysbiosis, but specific pathobionts and mechanisms remain unclear. This study investigated the role of patient-derived enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis (ETBF) in ALD progression and its underlyi...
